HOW DID THE WOMEN’S BOOK »OUR BODIES, OURSELVES« BECOME A GLOBAL BEST-SELLER? AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE ON A SUCCESS STORY
First published in the United States in 1971, »Our Bodies, Ourselves« was repeatedly revised and reissued up to 2011. To date, it has appeared in thirty-three editions in various languages all over the world. These are not mere translations, but culturally sensitive adaptations of a book by women about their bodies. Authored by the Boston Women's Health Book Collective, how did this collective enterprise, identified by its urban location, achieve such worldwide diffusion? This story is ongoing, as the most recent, completely revised French edition (2020) indicates.

THE RAW MATERIALS OF INTERNATIONAL BUREAUCRACY
Competition for resources has long been viewed as a driver of interstate rivalry and a source of geopolitical instability. By contrast, this talk will investigate how, over the last two hundred years, the extraction and distribution of key commodities could also favour new forms of cross-border cooperation and international governance.

TRACKS, TRACKING, TRACING. MEDIENPRAKTIKEN ZWISCHEN FLUCHT UND FLÜCHTIGKEIT
Flucht und Flüchtigkeit hängen in ihrer medialen Fassung häufig zusammen: Während »tracks« beispielsweise die flüchtigen Spuren von Flucht meint, die in Grenzgebieten wie im Internet zu finden sind, bezeichnen »tracking« und »tracing« Medienpraktiken, die im Spannungsfeld von gouvernementalen Grenzdispositiven und kollaborativen Organisationsformen verortet sind.

BERTHA VON SUTTNER ALS SCHÜLERIN VICTOR HUGOS. DIE FRIEDENSBEWEGUNG VOR DEM ERSTEN WELTKRIEG
Victor Hugo musste wegen der Gegnerschaft zu Napoleon III. Frankreich verlassen. Im Exil wurde er zum prominentesten Sprecher der europäischen Friedensbewegung. Bertha von Suttners Roman »Die Waffen nieder!« sowie ihre »Memoiren« zeigen, wie stark sie Hugo als Vorbild verstand, als sie nach dessen Tod den Friedensdiskurs prägte.
